Ortho-Nitro Effect on the Diastereoselective Control in Sulfa-Staudinger and Staudinger Cycloadditions.

ABSTRACT: The ortho-nitro effect was discovered in sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions of ethoxycarbonylsulfene with linear imines. When an ortho-nitro group is present at the C-aryl substituents of linear imines, the sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions deliver cis-?-sultams in considerable amounts, together with the predominant trans-?-sultams. In other cases, the above sulfa-Staudinger cycloadditions give rise to trans-?-sultams exclusively. Further mechanistic rationalization discloses that the ortho-nitro effect is attributed to its strong electron-withdrawing inductive effect. Similarly, the ortho-nitro effect also exists in Staudinger cycloadditions of ethoxycarbonyl ketene with the imines. The current research provides further insights into the diastereoselective control in sulfa-Staudinger and Staudinger cycloadditions.

4-Nitro-benzoic acid-sulfa-thia-zole (1/1).

Project description:In the crystal structure of the title compound, C7H5NO4·C9H9N3O2S2, the sulfa-thia-zole and 4-nitro-benzoic acid mol-ecules are held together by short ?-? contacts between the thia-zole and nitro-benzene rings, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.8226?(7)?Å. The sulfa-thia-zole mol-ecules form dimers via N-H?N hydrogen bonds involving the thia-zole and sulfonamide moieties, owing to the fact that sulfathizole exhibits amide-imide tautomerism. The N-H (amine) groups of two sulfathiazole molecules are linked to the two S=O groups of a sulfathiazole via N-H?O hydrogen bonds. Two mol-ecules of coformer are held together by O-H?O hydrogen bonds. These units self-assemble, forming a three-dimensional network stabilized by (acid)C-H??(sulfa-thia-zole benzene ring) inter-actions.

Ortho-Phosphinoarenesulfonamide-Mediated Staudinger Reduction of Aryl and Alkyl Azides.

Project description:Conventional Staudinger reductions of organic azides are sluggish with aryl or bulky aliphatic azides. In addition, Staudinger reduction usually requires a large excess of water to promote the decomposition of the aza-ylide intermediate into phosphine oxide and amine products. To overcome the challenges above, we designed a novel triaryl phosphine reagent 2c with an ortho-SO2NH2 substituent. Herein, we report that such phosphine reagents are able to mediate the Staudinger reduction of both aryl and alkyl azides in either anhydrous or wet solvents. Good to excellent yields were obtained in all cases (even at a diluted concentration of 0.01 M). The formation of B-TAP, a cyclic aza-ylide, instead of phosphine oxide, eliminates the requirement of water in the Staudinger reduction. In addition, computational studies disclose that the intramolecular protonation of the aza-ylide by the ortho-SO2NH2 group is kinetically favorable and responsible for the acceleration of Staudinger reduction of the aryl azides.

Regio- and diastereoselective intermolecular [2+2] cycloadditions photocatalysed by quantum dots.

Project description:Light-driven [2+2] cycloaddition is the most direct strategy to build tetrasubstituted cyclobutanes, core components of many lead compounds for drug development. Significant advances in the chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity of [2+2] photocycloadditions have been made, but exceptional and tunable diastereoselectivity and regioselectivity (head-to-head versus head-to-tail adducts) is required for the synthesis of bioactive molecules. Here we show that colloidal quantum dots serve as visible-light chromophores, photocatalysts and reusable scaffolds for homo- and hetero-intermolecular [2+2] photocycloadditions of 4-vinylbenzoic acid derivatives, including aryl-conjugated alkenes, with up to 98% switchable regioselectivity and 98% diastereoselectivity for the previously minor syn-cyclobutane products. Transient absorption spectroscopy confirms that our system demonstrates catalysis triggered by triplet-triplet energy transfer from the quantum dot. The precisely controlled triplet energy levels of the quantum dot photocatalysts facilitate efficient and selective heterocoupling, a major challenge in direct cyclobutane synthesis.

Organocatalytic Asymmetric [2 + 4] Cycloadditions of 3-Vinylindoles with ortho-Quinone Methides.

Project description:Catalytic asymmetric [2 + 4] cycloadditions of 3-vinylindoles with ortho-quinone methides and their precursors were carried out in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid to afford a series of indole-containing chroman derivatives with structural diversity in overall high yields (up to 98%), good diastereoselectivities (up to 93:7 dr) and moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee). This approach not only enriches the chemistry of catalytic asymmetric cycloadditions involving 3-vinylindoles but is also useful for synthesizing chiral chroman derivatives.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Rapid Cycloadditions of 5-Nitro-1,2,3-triazine.

Project description:The synthesis, characterization, and a study of the cycloaddition reactions of 5-nitro-1,2,3-triazine (3) are reported. The electron-deficient nature of 3 permits rapid cycloaddition with a variety of electron-rich dienophiles, including amidines, enamines, enol ethers, ynamines, and ketene acetals in high to moderate yields. 1H NMR studies of a representative cycloaddition reaction between 3 and an amidine revealed a remarkable reaction rate and efficiency (1 mM, <60 s, CD3CN, 23 °C, >95%).

The Effect of the ortho Nitro Group in the Solvolysis of Benzyl and Benzoyl Halides.

Project description:A kinetic study was carried out on the solvolysis of o-nitrobenzyl bromide (o-isomer, 1) and p-nitrobenzyl bromide (p-isomer, 3), and o-nitrobenzoyl chloride (o-isomer, 2) in a wide range of solvents under various temperatures. In all of the solvents without aqueous fluoroalcohol, the reactions of 1 were solvolyzed at a similar rate to those observed for 3, and the reaction rates of 2 were about ten times slower than those of the previously studied p-nitrobenzoyl chloride (p-isomer, 4). For solvolysis in aqueous fluoroalcohol, the reactivity of 2 was kinetically more reactive than 4. The l/m values of the extended Grunwald-Winstein (G-W) equation for solvolysis of 1 and 2 in solvents without fluoroalcohol content are all significantly larger than unity while those in all the fluoroalcohol solvents are less than unity. The role of the ortho-nitro group as an intramolecular nucleophilic assistant (internal nucleophile) in the solvolytic reaction of 1 and 2 was discussed. The results are also compared with those reported earlier for o-carbomethoxybenzyl bromide (5) and o-nitrobenzyl p-toluenesulfonate (7). From the product studies and the activation parameters for solvolyses of 1 and 2 in several organic hydroxylic solvents, mechanistic conclusions are drawn.

Transition structures of diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of nitrile oxides to chiral homoallylic alcohols.

Project description:Transition structures of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of substituted nitrile oxides with chiral homoallylic alcohols were explored with density functional theory (B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p)+CPCM(dichloromethane)//B3LYP/6-31+G(d)). The diastereoselectivity observed in these reactions was explained. The anti product is favored in both the thermal and magnesium-mediated reactions. Selectivity is predicted to increase in the presence of magnesium, in agreement with experimental results. The energetics of the magnesium-mediated reaction are similar to those previously found for allylic alcohols. [structure: see text].

cis-Diastereoselective Synthesis of Spirooxindolo-β-Lactams by Staudinger Cycloaddition with TsCl as Activating Co-reagent.

Project description:A convenient and versatile one-pot method for synthesis of 1,3-bis-aryl spirooxindolo-β-lactams from isatin Schiff bases and substituted phenylacetic acids using ketene-imine cycloaddition reaction with TsCl for a ketene generation has been developed. The reaction procedure does not require absolute solvents and unstable starting reagents. The studied reactions lead to cis-diastereoselective β-lactam formation for all tested phenylacetic acids except 4-MeOC6H4CH2COOH. An increase of trans-diastereomers yields with increasing temperature and solvent polarity was demonstrated.

Small-molecule control of protein function through Staudinger reduction.

Project description:Using small molecules to control the function of proteins in live cells with complete specificity is highly desirable, but challenging. Here we report a small-molecule switch that can be used to control protein activity. The approach uses a phosphine-mediated Staudinger reduction to activate protein function. Genetic encoding of an ortho-azidobenzyloxycarbonyl amino acid using a pyrrolysyl transfer RNA synthetase/tRNACUA pair in mammalian cells enables the site-specific introduction of a small-molecule-removable protecting group into the protein of interest. Strategic placement of this group renders the protein inactive until deprotection through a bioorthogonal Staudinger reduction delivers the active wild-type protein. This developed methodology was applied to the conditional control of several cellular processes, including bioluminescence (luciferase), fluorescence (enhanced green fluorescent protein), protein translocation (nuclear localization sequence), DNA recombination (Cre) and gene editing (Cas9).

Small Molecule Control of Morpholino Antisense Oligonucleotide Function through Staudinger Reduction.

Project description:Conditionally activated, caged morpholino antisense agents (cMOs) are tools that enable the temporal and spatial investigation of gene expression, regulation, and function during embryonic development. Cyclic MOs are conformationally gated oligonucleotide analogs that do not block gene expression until they are linearized through the application of an external trigger, such as light or enzyme activity. Here, we describe the first examples of small molecule-responsive cMOs, which undergo rapid and efficient decaging via a Staudinger reduction. This is enabled by a highly flexible linker design that offers opportunities for the installation of chemically activated, self-immolative motifs. We synthesized cyclic cMOs against two distinct, developmentally relevant genes and demonstrated phosphine-triggered knockdown of gene expression in zebrafish embryos. This represents the first report of a small molecule-triggered antisense agent for gene knockdown, adding another bioorthogonal entry to the growing arsenal of gene knockdown tools.
